LG Ultragear 48GQ900-B
The LG Ultragear 48GQ900-B doesn’t easily fit into a specific genre of computer monitors. Mainly, it’s just really big and has excellent image quality. With that said, while the HDR and motion clarity are top of the line, the unusually low brightness and steep price tag hold it back from greatness. If you’re looking for a huge 4K screen for your PC then this display is perfect, otherwise you may find something more suitable to your needs for less.
